[QUOTE="Laelkhunter, post: 2642530, member: 38154"] Check the bullet clearance (bore diameter) of the brake by taking a bullet and dropping it into the brake. If it gets caught halfway through, that's your problem. Sometimes they will shoot good at first, then after a few shots, the powder burning can cut the metal of the brake causing a slight protrusion of metal into the path of the bullet. It's easy to fix, just get a chain saw file (small round diameter), and run it through the brake until the bullet drops freely through it. Only takes a stroke or two to remove the burr inside the brake. I had this minor problem with my radial brake, and after a few light strokes of the file, shoots good as it did originally. [/QUOTE]
